I'm looking to upgrade my old desktop and get one of those awesome Alienware curved monitors. I already have two flat monitors that I'd love to connect to the new setup. My ideal scenario is to extend the screen, having a flat monitor on each side of the curved monitor. Is this even possible?
Alternatively, could I position the flat monitors above the curved one and use them for different tasks? For instance, gaming on the curved monitor while one flat monitor plays YouTube and the other handles coursework. I plan to use Windows products exclusively. Any tips would be greatly appreciated!

Yes, you can definitely set up multiple monitors! The key is ensuring your video card has enough power and the right outputs for three monitors. Curved or flat doesn't matter; it's all about your GPU capabilities. Make sure to check resolution compatibility as well!
Curved and flat monitors can work together just fine. I used to have a setup like that! Just ensure your GPU has sufficient outputs and can manage the resolutions you're aiming for. I personally use an Asus ROG Strix 3090—great for multi-monitor setups!
Thanks for the insight! Do you have recommendations for a video card that can handle three monitors well?
